visibility is an issue as well. .3 of a mile visibility in mount pocono, 1.3 in allentown. not really a big deal at philadelphia international airport at 9-mile visibility but in some spots we're seeing this patchy fog from this milder air that's moving in. so we are above freezing now and we're going up to 53 today. so, by 9:00 a.m., 43 with clouds and a spotty shower around. by noon, about 49 degrees. by 3:00 p.m., 52, clouds and a shower here or there. we should be dry by 6:00 p.m. and the clouds will start to break and that temperature 48. fortunately we're not worried about slippery roads, matt, but it is wet out there. >> it definitely is so the weather conditions not really on our side for the morning commute, karen. good morning, everybody. we've seen a number of accidents already including another one here in glen mills. we started the morning with one in the northbound lanes of 202. that cleared out and about a half hour later one happened in the southbound lanes right at baltimore pike route 1. you can see this vehicle involved pretty badly damaged and they still have all the southbound lanes of 202 shut down as they attempt to clean up and tow away the vehicles. so, dickinson drive a

possible, very local alternate. think i'd stay on britton lake road as a better bet. a crash in pottstown this morning, north charlotte street at saint john street. stick with spruce or evans as some alternates. have the ongoing work zone with new restrictions along 422. there's a crash involving a pedestrian in bridgeport to avoid right by franzone's. stay over on 202 dekalb pike instead. there's a building fire in narberth shutting down montgomery avenue this morning between old golf road and brookhurst avenue there by the manhattan bagel. maybe use bryn mawr avenue, wynnewood road or lancaster avenue as some possible alternates around that situation. tam. >> okay, thank you, matt. and the search is expected to resume this morning for a man who fell into the christina river after a barge overturned.

"action news" reporter erin o'hearn is live at the big board with the details. hi, erin. >> hi, matt. bill cosby unable to find any reprieve from these allegations. now for the first time a woman has gone public claiming cosby abused her when she was underage. judy huth filed a sexual battery lawsuit stating the comedian molested her in a playboy mansion around 1974.

now covering to huth the alleged abuse occurred after cosby gave her several drinks and told her to lie about her age if anyone at the playboy mansion happened to ask. this news comes just a day after cosby resigned from temple university's board of trustees amid the mounting sexual allegations against him. the board's chairman spoke about cosby's split from his alma mater. >> as he said to me, my issues are becoming a distraction to the temple university. i love temple. i don't want temple to be harmed by my personal issues. >> reporter: cosby has remained silent on the allegations but his attorneys have continued to maintain his innocence. however, they have not responded to this new lawsuit but all the accusations have certainly put a dent in his recent career comeback effort. several of his shows have been canceled and netflix and nbc have shelved projects featuring cosby. tam, back to you. >> okay, erin, thank you for that. a staten island grand jury could vote as he willy as

damp pretty dreary today with that cloud lingering. fog in allentown. we have reduced visibility there to about a mile so lots of clouds even in the afternoon. and a high of 49 degrees. at the shore we have cloud cover along the coastline a little further inland it's not so bad. mostly cloudy skies and a spotty shower at the shore with a high of 52. and here in philadelphia what you can expect, lots of clouds, it's at least milder than yesterday when we were stuck in the upper 30's a few showers and 53 degrees for you high. by 8:00 a.m. it's about 42 with a shower. by 11:00 a.m., 46. by 2:00 p.m., 51 degrees, another shower in spots but we look much drier and clouds are starting to brake by 5:00 p.m. and 52 degrees. let's look at your exclusive accuweather 7-day forecast. lots of clouds and a few showers in spots today. they'll be spotty. 53 degrees for your high so milder. finally the sunshine returns. it looks better tomorrow. it's chilly, though, 46 degrees. friday we have more clouds coming back into the picture but it looks like the rain holds off until late friday night. 48 degrees for your high.
